How we should use these words in English..
Hate,
like,
love
prefer
We can use hate, like, love and prefer with an -ing form or with a to-infinitive:
I hate to do homework.
خیلی بدم میاد تکلیف انجام بدم .
I love going to the cinema.
سینما رفتن و دوست دارم
I prefer listening to the news on radio than watching it on TV.
ترجیح میدم خبر را از رادیو گوش کنم تا اینکه تو تلویزیون تماشا کنم
He prefers not to wear a tie to work.
ترجیح میده سر کار کروات نزنه..

In American English, the forms with to-infinitive are much more common than the -ing form.
There is a very small difference in meaning between the two forms.
The -ing form emphasises the action or experience.
The to-infinitive gives more emphasis to the results of the action or event.
We often use the -ing form to suggest enjoyment (or lack of it),
the to-infinitive form to express habits or preferences.
I like making jam.
He likes telling jokes.
They don’t like sitting for too long.
